Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp buffalo hot sauce for the spiderweb design
  • 1 small black olive sliced, for the spider
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Season the chicken breast with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the chicken reaches 165°F internally.
  5. Meanwhile, steam the broccoli florets for 4 to 5 minutes until tender.
  6. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
  7. In a small bowl, thin the Greek yogurt with a splash of water until pourable, then transfer to a small piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped.
  8. Divide the quinoa, sliced chicken, and broccoli into a meal prep container.
  9. Pipe the yogurt in a spiral over the chicken, then drag a toothpick from the center outward in a few spots to create a spiderweb design.
  10. Dot the buffalo sauce in small drops around the web and place the olive slice in the center to look like a spider.
  11. Serve warm, or store for later in the week.

Notes

The spiderweb design uses just a spoonful of Greek yogurt and hot sauce, so the entire spooky presentation adds almost nothing to the cost of the base recipe.
